The Greater San Rafael Swell Tucson, Arizona : The University of Arizona Press, c2022 9780816543922 "The Greater San Rafael Swell: Honoring Tradition and Conserving Land in Utah's Emery County introduces readers to Emery County, an area containing 630,000 acres of public land protected under the Emery County Public Land Management Act passed in March 2019. It discusses the landscape and the country's geological, paleontological, and cultural history. Through conversations with more than 40 individuals, the book examines how the land gained protection in the face of long-standing tensions between conservationists and those who believe that public lands should primarily serve economic interests. It also explores and compares how three other rural counties in the West (Utah and Idaho) resolved such tensions to protect other conservation areas. The book is filled with 125 color images of scenery, rock art, archival historic photos, largely taken by the authors."--Provided by publisher.Environmental managementUtahEmery CountyLandscape protectionUtahEmery CountySan Rafael Swell (Utah)Environmental managementLandscape protection979.257Strom Stephen1159947Bailey JonathanMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910795633903321The Greater San Rafael Swell3826122UNINA
